I'm announcing SoR's 6th Robot Tutorial Contest. This year it'll be different, instead of written tutorials, this time its for video tutorials for the Axon. As before, winners can choose between $100, a new free Axon, or a reimbursement for one they already purchased.

Depending on how Admin answers my question on if separate videos on the same robot count as one entry or not, here's my first entry consisting of two Youtube videos. A second entry with proper tutorial is forthcoming.

Alright, here's my second entry. Hopefully it gives the Axon enough face-time. Also Youtube has been slow to provide the HD version, i uploaded it as 720P hopefully that will be an option soon. EDIT: now it's there. It's much better if you watch it in 720P.

Also, first video tutorial ever, so be easy one me. It took me many hours of takes to get it right, and I still hate the sound of my own voice.

- but hey "Chin up" - let me know when you plan to release a range of marzipan servos. Perhaps a tutorial on how to convert icing sugar for continuous rotation would be a good follow up. Incidentally - pipe cleaners make good servo cables.

Pipe cleaners are good wires! Its true!At school we were given the challenge of making a heater type thing.I took a pipe cleaner, striped it of hair and used it as a heating element!Ok the teacher wasn't impressed when I nearly burnt my hand, but it worked.I found elastic band friction heaters work well too.

To be honest, I really like Madsci's and Hawaii00000's videos very much. Both are exactly what I was looking for. Good job on the video editing, the scripts, the animations, etc. I think I'll imitate both of you for my future videos

I will say though that Madsci's Webbotlib and Project Designer Tutorial video wins 1st, on account that his project had been completed both hardware and software wise. Hawaii00000 earned 2nd and voyager2 gets honorable mention.
